Hispano Vina del Mar

... mañana y yo cambié de cama/sillón muchas veces durante la "noche" para encontrar un lugar cómodo. No pienso que yo durmiera más que una hora en total. Nico y yo volvimos juntos a Viña, pero él no dejó de quejarse de la gente cuica que viven alla en Reñaca. Me dijo que alla viven la gente más blanca, rubia, y conservadora. Todos estaban saliendo de la iglesia católica y él me contó mucho acerca del racismo que existe hoy día en Chile.

HOLA! Hope everyone's doing well. This week has sure gone by fast! On Monday (June 22), I went to my classes, and afterwards we had a presentation about the artes de las calles (a.k.a - grafitti). It was very interesting. We learned about the some of the history of the grafitti in Valparaiso and several of the different styles that can be found throughout the city. Our speaker is a great artist, and he showed us several of his works. There can be a little ...

... und wir für diese Nacht eigentlich bei ihnen bleiben können, um am nächsten Tag in all** Ruhe eine Bleibe zu finden. Wir haben das Angebot g**ne angenommen und sind los zu ihrem Haus, in dem normal**weise die Mutt** von Paulina wohnt. Das Haus war auf einem Hügel oben und man hat eine schöne Aussicht aufs Me**. Am Abend wurde es dann recht amüsant. Wir v**süssten ihn mit Pisco (Chiles National-Schnaps ...

... in Chile. Nice retirement plan! We split up, allowing the girls to shop, and allowing us guys to do anything BUT shop. Off to the Museo Palacio Rioja, the former mansion of a rich Spanish accountant, a chap named Fernando Rioja. There wasn't much English info given, so upon finding that I spoke some Spanish, an older lady who worked part time there offered us a tour. It was a good tour, and she asked us to leave a comment in the ...

... pack on, a homeless guy approached me for some spare change. Normally I wouldn't, but he seemed so genuinely ecstatic that I actually spoke Spanish, that I gave him a 500 peso coin (worth about $1 CAD). I'd forgotten that it was still a decent amount of money here, so he grabbed my hand and started shaking it. I know it sounds bad, but I couldn't help but notice how sticky it was and wonder where it had been, and when it had last been washed. Eeew ...

... everything we have in the fridge and had it with rice. 25/10/2008 (SAT) We woke up a bit early today because we really thought we should do something today. So we decided to go and check out La Sebastiana. La Sebastiana is one of the ...

... 6 hours we were stuck at the border, making our long sounding 16 hour bus journey to Cordoba into 22 hours. Long time, particularly when the conductor decides in his infinite wisdom that the film "The Kovak (possibly) box" would be the ideal way of helping pass the time. If you learn only one thing from this whole blog, it should be to not ...

... a la mesa. Después de disfrutar este lugar tomamos de nuevo nuestro camino recorrido a Santiago, donde los Andes parecían una gran pared blanca pintada por la nieve que cada vez teníamos mas cerca. Recorrimos las calles desde el centro de Santiago que nos mostraba la forma como su gente disfrutaba ese domingo en el parque, en las aceras y en los centros comerciales. Chile como las principales ciudades latinoamericanas muestra la diversidad de su ...
